Synopsis:
For many decades it had been forgotten - "The Miracle of Wörgl", the story of Mayor Michael Unterguggenberger. During the world economic crisis, in which all of Europe sinks into unemployment and hardship, he drives unemployment towards zero with the introduction of a regional currency and leads the community back to prosperity. Fifty other communities want to follow Unterguggenberger's example. Even the French prime minister was interested in Unterguggenberger's successful model. A model that also creates enemies for him because it undermines the power of the banks, politics and especially the interests of the National Socialists.
